“Deneghra is all about control, and a little bit about denial…”
Why does that remind me of someone’s ex-girlfriend ?
ON the other hand, I guess she’s “good support” as well…

Great video. Its nice to get a run down on the models and how they might be used. Are there going to be similar videos for other factions?
@gamerjohn … Yes… we’re going to take a look at all the WM and Hordes factions.
I must say two things : 1. Why you didn’t say anything about Helldivers ?!?!??!! They are the best thing with deneghra’s tier. You can make 15 pts tier three just putting 4 helldivers and 2 necrotechs ( that comes with 2 scrapthralls , therefore 4 four solos ). Helldivers can burrow and effectively move 8 inch per turn and the enemy can’t do anything about it ! Don’t worry about the rule that said they would die if some one covers they entire 3 inch exit range when they are burrow, it would never happen in a 15pts battle.… Read more »
Great video again. I actually won my first game playing with my new Crix box. I think my next purchase may be pistol raiths. I actually got bile thralls as an addition to the army. Not thinking of using them now as the whole poision thing got slated. It is good against one point damage troops though?
Im about 50/50 win ratio with my mate who got the cygnar box set. I enjoy ghostwalk too much to give her up plus i designed a 25 point army that uses bane thralls, Nightmare stalkers and a pistol wraith for stealth army 😛
I’m not a cryx player but I always saw the defiler as a better arc node option than the deathripper. To me an arc node wants to stay out of melee so any ranged attack is better than melee. Plus the benefits of all the things sprays ignore is pretty amazing.
Even without playing her I can tell your selling pDenny short. She can be brutal with the feat stacked with her debuffs, but it dose take much more finesse than just using cryx’s brute offensive force -maybe not quite as satisfying either.
Hey, I speak from my experience as a beginer Cryx player with 3 mangled metal games behind my belt, two wins (Kador and pMagnus) and one lose against a veteran Cryx fielding Mercs with Jan ‘d Arc. I get lot of satisfaction when playing with Deneghra. Nothing can match the feeling of dealing dice+ damage against Khador ‘jacks. Also Denny has realy nasty debuffs. They are so good, that I rarely find any spare focus to cast ghostwalk, not even to mention venom. Her feat is also just pure evil. The saying goes “On Denny’s featturn everything is dangerous”. On… Read more »
The first buy for a new Cryx player should be the Deathjack, its one of those all purpose killers, expensive but worth every point!
Nice video. However i got some points of feedback: Influence doesn’t move the model just let’s u make 1 melee attack. Use the arc nodes for Cripling grasp then deathchill the other models u don’t like. Effectively u get 3 moddels not beeing able to charge and 2 not doing anything usefull. Use scourge during the feat turn. It does cost a lot but the knocking down side of it is very nasty and usually let’s me win the game. Specially if u got Pistol Wraiths with soultokens on them. I play Deneghra a lot and if u set up… Read more »
Denny is a toolbox caster. If you mis-use her tools, she can seem weak. When you use her tools correctly she is a house. Venom is a toolbox spell. Venom kills infantry dead. 10 + 2d6 means 17 damage is the middle of the bell curve, which means it melts single wound models not in shield wall or ARM buffed. Venom causes corrosion though, so 2/3rds of the tightly packed shield wall troops that you hosed down with venom will die from the auto-point of damage. All for 2 focus on a 7 focus warcaster. Plus, if her Skarlock can… Read more »
I have a request, if Andy ever reads this, could you please cover Venethrax in a video? 🙂
I’m a bit still confused about the ghost walk spell; in the book it says the model can advance through terrain and obstacles (walls, ruins, etc) but Andy keeps mentioning about going through other models I.e. infantry and ‘jacks.
Can i actually use ghost walk to go through units at all?
From what i’m reading; it can go through terrain, but it doesn’t make the model incorporeal.
I know this is old, but I just found it and I’m shocked. First of all, Deneghra is NOT a second-rate Warcaster. Crippling Grasp, Parasite, Ghost Walk and Scourge are all great spells. Venom is very good at killing warrior models. Influence is not that great to be honest, but sometimes it can actually make a difference. Her Feat is AMAZING, it makes everything better. And combined with her spells she can make anything soft. Basically she makes everything in your army into a dangerous killer by debuffing her enemies. And yeah, she has Stealth. That’s always nice(except against Legion)… Read more »
